Detailed explanation-1: -A variable is said to be continuous if it can assume an infinite number of real values within a given interval.
Detailed explanation-2: -Continuous variables can be further categorized as either interval or ratio variables. Interval variables are variables for which their central characteristic is that they can be measured along a continuum and they have a numerical value (for example, temperature measured in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit).
Detailed explanation-3: -A continuous variable is defined as a variable which can take an uncountable set of values or infinite set of values. For instance, if a variable over a non-empty range of the real numbers is continuous, then it can take on any value in that range.
